Still waiting on MRI or someone to really confirm what all is wrong. He gave the best explanation he could I guess. Surgery likely wouldn't benefit me.

I had experience with Dr Kling for a torn meniscus last year and really came away from that with a lot of confidence in him. I started with a different practice for the current hip issue and had a very negative experience. I told my PCP I wanted to use Dr Kling. I informed the scheduler that I didn't have a joint issue, but a torn muscle and wanted to see Dr Kling. [...] Fortunately I was able to get in with him in less than 1 weeks time. The appointment with Dr Kling went exactly as I expected and I feel very comfortable in proceeding forward with the course of action we decided upon.
